Browns' QB Dilemma: Watson vs. Sanders

On April 30, Cleveland Brown's sitting on a quarterback dilemma with the Sean Watson and

Shadour Sanders battling for the starting spot in 20, 26.

Watson's got $46 million guaranteed this year, locking the team into paying him no

matter what, while Sanders is the fresh draft pick they want to build around.

Earlier this week, reports from minicamp had Watson pulling ahead with one beat rider

pushing hard to name him the guy right now, so the first team.

But those were voluntary workouts in shorts, no pads, no real rush, and key

receivers weren't even there. Fans and pundits are split, with some like

ESPN's Mike Wilben-San, he'd be shocked if Watson doesn't start, pointing to

the money and how the browns. Need to justify that massive deal.

Community vibes add pressure to, mixing football with off-field baggage from

Watson's past. The teams on a rebuild roll, after smart free

agency moves and draft picks, getting younger on offense. Watson's contract keeps

them stuck until March 20, 27, but a true competition won't heat up until

full training camp in July with pads. Popping, Sanders still has a real shot to

seize this if he dominates camp and leaves zero doubt he's the future. Money

tilts the scales toward Watson, but talent talks loudest when it counts.
